Obviously Rudy and Victor. The third I didn’t spot, so I knew it must be something like a summer league spot, or Moe in the crowd, or a coach, or commentator, or ref. Gian Clavell of Puerto Rico played for us in the 2019 summer league.
It takes away from his ability to be at his max. when he plays for the Blazers. It also increases the risk of an injury.

These guys have been doing Team USA stuff everyday since the beginning of August and won't get home til Mid-September, then training camp starts 10 days after. The busy schedule is just too much for the players to commit too. Very understandable.
JIngles almost getting a triple double against Senegal 17@75%/10/9 Delly not too far off either 6/8/7 Germany lead by Schroder and Theis knocked out of the World Cup by Dominican Republic and our man Luis Montero. Canada knocked out by Lithuania, who are looking very good. Big game coming up between Greece and New Zealand.
